Taking My Health Into My Own Hands!

(Read What I Did to Feel Better When My Doctors Can't Heal Me)

As you might have already know that I have been going to my Gastroenterologist Doctor for over 3 years now and sad to say he has not properly diagnosed me. I've wasted a lot of money, time and effort and lost days of work just to be able to figure it out what is wrong with my stomach.

His first diagnoses were they thought I had H. Pylori. When I knew I didn't have.  Why I knew I didn't have? Here's the symptoms of having the Helicobacter; Loss of Appetite which I don't have.
Bloating; which is normal for me. We all get that especially ingesting a big serving of beans or any other food that produces gases. Burping,, hmmmm really I rarely burp. Nausea only happens during my menses period and that is normal. Vomit that looks black like coffee ground. I never ever vomit unless I am so sick. Lastly, black or tarry stools. I do not have all these symptoms yet my doctors prescribed me Pylera and Anti-Bio-tics and Align Pro-Bio-tics for 10 days. Did I feel better after the 10 days regime? NO! I felt so let down. All the medication that I took it made me even feel sicker.

I went back to my doctor and told him that I was not feeling better and that the medication he prescribed me made me feel ill. He then did the EGD procedure. Clearly, in the pictures that my doctor took during EGD procedure, it showed no ulceration. He took samples inside of my stomach for Celiac and H. Pylori test!  While waiting for my biopsy results, I was taking a prescription Dixilant 60 mg for GERD daily. Yes, I feel better each time I take the medicine but it only seems to pacify my stomach for a few hours and then the feeling of uncomfortableness comes back again!

Couple weeks after my procedure, the test result came in. Viola I am not allergic to Wheat. So it means I am Celiac Disease free and most of All I don't have H. Pylori. I'm glad to know that I'm alright. If nothing is going on with my stomach, why do I feel pain or rather a pressure that would wake me up in the middle of the night?

After a month of taking the GERD medicine which is Dixilant, I still did not feel any better. So I decided to contact my doctor again. This time we went back to square 1. He wants to test me again with H. Pylori! What the F with this doctor? Did he just literally forget that my test result was negative just a month ago? I am so done with him.

(Take Note on what I did and still doing. This stuff literally made me feel like a million bucks)
I decided to change my diet into more fruits and veggies. Every morning, I blend any fruits whatever I've got available in my fridge. 
But most in my fruits blends contains:

  • 1 Ripe banana
  • 1 Green Apple
  • a handful of Seedless Grapes
  • a handful of baby carrots
  • 1 cup distilled water 
  • or a 1 cup of any fruit juices to your liking
Cut the banana into halves, cut the apple into bite size and take the seeds out, mixed all the fruits into the blender with any fruit juices to your liking or just use distilled water. (Optional: you can add kale or any dark leafy vegetables). Blend all ingredients until soft smooth.

This is what I have been taking daily as my breakfast. Beside ingesting all these healthy fruit juices, I also eat lots of Sava and Plantain bananas. In terms of eating meat, I eat less but I eat more green leafy veggies. I also avoid eating to much white rice. Along with all these healthy food, I also take a walk a mile or two a day to keep things moving. You know what I mean. 

I tried this every day in the last 6 weeks straight and  I couldn't be more happier with the result. I was so ecstatic beyond belief! I sleep well with no more gnawing pain. I didn't need to take my stomach prescription pills. I hope to not going back to my stomach doctor ever again and no more wasting money on stupid doctors that can't even tell you what is wrong with you! They just make you keep going back to make money out of you! Why would they? If they heal you or make you feel better, they will be going out of business. So for them to keep continue on making money, they won't really help patients to get better. Hats off to a real doctors out there but I have no respect to those who just in business to make money to enrich themselves. Karma will come to them sooner or later!

Thanks for reading. Get well and feel better yourself!
